The recent survey done by the Fiji Blood Services shows that the CWM hospital needs 50 pints of blood everyday to save lives.
The Ministry of Health in partnership with the Action for Children and the Aged Trust Fiji, Fiji National Blood Services and the Australian High Commission is organizing a two-day blood drive.
The blood drive which started this morning at the Suva Government Services Centre will end in the next hour.
Drive Coordinator Rosan Lal said they are also conducting wellness checks.
45-year-old Islesh Chand who has been donating blood for the past seven years said he feels happy after donating blood.
This blood drive is funded by the Australian High Commission and the Ministry of Health.
